This week’s Monday Night Raw and Smackdown Live were jam-packed with action and it could be said that Fastlane will also prove to be an excellent pay-per-view.
Follow Sportskeeda for the latest WWE news, rumors and all other wrestling news.
A few days to go and we will see the in-ring return of Roman Reigns, a match between Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch and many more.
These two matches are enough to make the WWE Universe talking about this PPV but there’s still a lot left to talk about.
Fans from all around the world are predicting the possible outcome of this pay-per-view and in this article, I will also talk about the same.
However, I’m not only going to predict the results of Fastlane’s match card as it has already been done by other writers. Instead, I will talk about some (5 to be exact) interesting things that may happen at this event.
#1 Sami Zayn cost the match to his best-friend Kevin Owens
Vince McMahon intentionally canceled Kofi Kingston vs Daniel Bryan’s Fastlane match for the WWE Championship. And now, Kevin Owens will be facing The Eco-friendly Champion at the final stop on the Road To Wrestlemania.
However, there have been some talks that Kingson will somehow find his way to the WWE Championship match. If it’s going to take place then The Prizefighter will have to lose his match against Bryan. But, this loss will hurt his momentum as a face Superstar.
To avoid that, WWE could bring Sami Zayn, who is Owens’ best-friend, and let him interfere in the WWE Championship match.
The last time we saw Zayn in WWE, he was working as a baddie. However, his heel run didn’t work as great as it did for Owens.
So I think that Underdog From The Underground could return to Smackdown and help Bryan in retaining his championship.
Not only it would help WWE to book Kingston vs Bryan at ‘Mania but it will also help to start a feud between Zayn and Owens.
#2 Becky Lynch gets a post-match beating by Ronda Rousey
I have already talked about how this match could end at Fastlane and you can read it here. This is the match that will decide if Becky Lynch is going to be in the main event of WrestleMania or not.
Majority of the fans are hoping for her victory and I think it is going to happen. But, what’s going to happen after the match?
After all, this is the match that is currently creating hype for Fastlane pay-per-view. So WWE could be planning to do something interesting for their own benefit.
I don’t know how this match is going to end but I believe that it is going to raise some eyebrows.
Suppose that Becky wins/lose this match but then, the Raw Women's Champion could enter the ring and ambush her. I know the fans may not like this but believe me, it is only going to do good to current storylines.
#3 Rey Mysterio vs Andrade steals the show
It is really shocking that Rey Mysterio vs Andrade is going to happen at Fastlane’s kickoff show.
I know that these two Superstars faced each other on a couple of occasions but it doesn't mean that the WWE should bump both of them in the kickoff match.
Like anyone else, I don't know how this match is going to end but what I think (and believe) is that this match will steal the show at this year’s Fastlane PPV.
It’s no secret that every time these Superstars work together we get to see a fantastic match. So don’t be surprised if we see another classic from these two Mexican Luchadores.
I also think that Zelina Vega could also interfere in this match to help Andrade out. This could then lead to another match between the two which will happen at Wrestlemania.
#4 Brock Lesnar returns?
In just a month, we will witness the biggest WWE show of the year, Wrestlemania.
Currently, three matches are booked for this pay-per-view: Brock Lesnar vs Seth Rollins for Universal Championship, Ronda Rousey vs Charlotte Flair or Raw Women's Championship, Buddy Murphy vs the Superstar who will win Cruiserweight Championship tournament.
Every Superstar mentioned above is showing up on Raw/Smackdown/205 Live on a weekly basis except Brock Lesnar.
I know that Lesnar is a part-timer and he won’t show up on Raw every week but at least he should work in this show periodically and help to do some build-up for his feud against Rollins.
There are currently no rumors regarding Lesnar’s in-ring return but I think that fans could see him returning at Fastlane. His role may not be big but at least he could return and give some F5s to his ‘Mania opponent. I know it sounds unlikely but anything could happen in WWE.
#5 WWE plant seeds to Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania
It’s been reported by Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE is planning to do Roman Reigns vs Baron Corbin at WrestleMania.
The two will face each other at Fastlane during The Shield vs The Corbin Alliance match. However, I don’t think that the two are going to face each other at ‘Mania as there are many other better options remaining.
Drew McIntyre, the biggest heel of Raw, is currently feuding with numerous Superstars. One week, he will attack Finn Balor but the other he will feud with Dean Ambrose.
However, it is only creating confusion among the WWE Universe as McIntyre needs to have one rivalry at a time only. Fastlane could be the place where Reigns could find his ‘Mania opponent as right now, only a few weeks are left.
Considering the things happening on Raw, I think that Drew McIntyre will be the right opponent for Roman Reigns at ‘Mania.
